Bond was set at $150,000 during an initial appearance (via video) in Municipal Court on Monday for the man accused of stabbing two people with a large knife in Dover on Friday. Victoriano Felix Perez-Lopez, 31, of 212 W. Shafer Ave., Dover, was charged with two counts of felonious assault, for allegedly stabbing his wife and another man in the couple’s home.

Police Capt. Jim Hitchcock said one of the felonious assault charges is for the stab wound to the leg of Perez-Lopez’s 31-year-old wife. The other is for multiple stab wounds, including one to the abdomen, inflicted upon a 28-year-old Dover man.

The latter victim was flown by helicopter to Akron General Hospital, where he was treated. He since has been released.

Hitchcock said the stabbings occurred after Perez-Lopez arrived home “earlier than anticipated” Friday and found his wife and the other man in bed together.

Police received a call at 1:40 p.m. Friday from a resident who lives near the Perez-Lopez residence who reported that the neighbors were possibly fighting, and that the female was on the curb bleeding from a leg wound.

Before police arrived at the scene, they received a 911 call that a male was stabbed in the 200 block of W. Wills Avenue, a few blocks away.

Hitchcock said the 28-year-old man had grabbed his sweatshirt as he left the Perez-Lopez residence and had it pressed against his abdomen to slow the bleeding. The man had no other clothing on, he noted.
